Psalms 147:2-9 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

2. Yahweh is building Jerusalem; he gathers the scattered ones of Israel.

3. He is the one who heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds.

4. He counts the number of the stars; he gives names to all of them.

5. Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is unlimited.

6. Yahweh helps the afflicted up; he brings the wicked down to the ground.

7. Sing to Yahweh with thanksgiving; sing praises to our God with lyre,

8. who covers the heavens with clouds, who provides rain for the earth, who causes grass to grow on the mountains.

9. He gives to the animal its food, and to the young ravens that cry.
